Abstract:
Angiomatosis is a poorly understood entity belonging to the vascular tumor family. It has never been described occurring in the mediastinum until this case report. Features unique to this tumor are described in this article, including a high recurrence rate after resection. The surgeon encountering this unusual tumor should attempt wide local excision at the time of surgery. Close follow-up for recurrence is highly recommended.
